Former Chelsea and England footballer Barry Bridges has been running a newsagents in Norwich for the past 20 years. Now 66, he and his wife, Megan, have just sold up their West Earlham paper shop. He has enjoyed his stint selling headlines rather than making them. "This game is hard, with long old hours", he says. But what made it bearable were his customers, "the nicest people I've met in my life." (Via Norwich Evening News)
